I Like Weird the Most

He Wenzhi's eyes widened when he heard this, and his expression changed dramatically.

He looked at the old lady and said in surprise, "Ghost town? So... the whole city is full of ghosts?"

"Yes, so do I and Xiaoyu." The old lady said, and then said: "So, this is not the place for you to come, good living people, what are you doing in this ghost town?"

Immediately afterwards, the grandmother explained some of the details, which were also the issues that one of He Wen was very concerned about from the beginning.

It's true that Wuyou City is a ghost city, but Wuyou City has its own rules, so there is a situation where it is a person during the day, but a ghost at night.

The reason why Wuyou City is called Wuyou City is because the "people" living in it live a carefree life.

Even if this carefree may just be an illusion.

According to the old lady, Wuyou City is more like a place of return for the dead. If the person after death has no obsession, or has been saved, they will come to Wuyou City.

Now that you are here, you will naturally stay here to live.

People who live here will forget the past and live the present life wholeheartedly.

No strife, no worries.

Even if they die and become ghosts, the rules of the city of worry-free can still give ghosts living here a chance to become humans again.

That is to say, to be a man by day and to be a ghost by night.

But after all, it is a ghost, so it is impossible to truly be here as a person, so it is only maintained during the day.

All of these are the protection given by Worry-free City.

It is also because of this that people wearing clothes from different eras can be seen in this city.

Because when they died, they lived in different times.

Everything in the past has been forgotten, so they naturally don't feel strange about this situation.

In their cognition, everything should have been like this from the beginning.

After hearing these words, He Wenzhi suddenly thought, could this Wuyou City be the [Place of Rebirth] that he discussed with Li Ziru back then?

At that time, He Wenzhi had seen the gate of the secret realm in the memory of the zombie girl.

The sea of ​​stars at that time was like a collection of dots and stars that the undead became after being saved, and the door was in that sea of ​​stars.

At that time, He Wenzhi had guessed whether behind the door was the place of death.

Now it seems that those undead have come to this place, and have forgotten the past, and started a new life.

In this case, it is actually quite appropriate to call this place the place of death.

But since it is already the place of death, why do you need a substitute?

Could it be that in this world, after death, the soul comes here first, and then needs to find a substitute so that it can be reincarnated?

No matter how you think about it, it feels a bit outrageous.

He Wenzhi also asked about this point.

It's just that on this aspect, the old lady didn't give an accurate answer, because she didn't know it herself.

Although she was the same deceased and finally came to the city of worry-free, she didn't eat the things inside like the others.

As long as you don't eat those things, you can maintain your will.

This is also the reason why the old lady would go out to find food every day, but never get it in the city of worry-free.

She doesn't want to forget about the past.

Although those people in Wuyou City seem to be living a carefree life, they always feel that it is not real.

In fact, Xiaoyu is not her real granddaughter, but arranged for her by Wuyou City.

This is the same for all the dead who entered the city of worry-free.

Whether it is a job or an identity, as long as you come to this worry-free city, you will have it.

It's just that when she saw Xiaoyu, she had already eaten the food inside and forgot everything in the past, so she wouldn't have any problem eating it now.

The old grandma didn't lose her memory, but she could only live like this. Over time, she had feelings for Xiaoyu, and she really regarded her as her granddaughter.

But the old lady also found out that although she has never eaten those things, the longer she stays here, the more she will be slowly eroded by it.

The most obvious point is that the grandmother's memory of the past has been slowly disappearing.

She can't remember many things in the past now, maybe it won't be long, even if she doesn't eat those things, she will be like those people one day.

That's why she kept telling He Wenzhi to leave quickly.

Because the longer you stay, the greater the possibility of being eroded, and until the end, you can no longer leave.

At this time, He Wenzhi asked: "Grandma, you said that Wuyou City has its own rules, so if you don't eat the food here, won't you be discovered?"

The old lady said: "Little fish and I lived a good life, obeyed the law and never violated any of the rules here.

And I have never gone out at night, and I have never met those ghosts that come out at night and guard the city of worry-free.

As long as I don't get caught by them and I don't take the initiative to violate the rules, naturally nothing will happen. "

The old woman sighed again as she spoke.

"Well...but even if I don't do anything, I will end up like them..." She said, and then looked at He Wenzhi: "Then again, how did you, as living people, enter this place of?"

"Through a door, just like this." He Wenzhi said this, very simple, but also true.

Upon hearing this, the old grandma rolled her eyes, obviously she would not believe it so easily.

But she didn't ask more questions, but said directly: "Then you can find the door, can you go back?"

He Wenzhi: "..."

Should it be said that people are old and mature? To be guessed by the other party all of a sudden?

He Wenzhi chose to skip this topic.

From the conversation just now and what happened in the past two days, several things can be completely determined.

That is, if you eat something, you will be assimilated by the city of worry-free. The awakened person is the best example.

And if you eat something, it will become a substitute. It is not known where the souls that have been replaced have gone.

At the same time, there are powerful ghosts patrolling the city at night in Wuyou City. In the words of the old lady, those are the guards.

Moreover, although it is forbidden to go out at night, if a living person has already eaten those things, or bought something, it is equivalent to becoming a substitute, or a candidate for a substitute.

As long as there are already these, it is not illegal for the ghosts in Wuyou City to go out at night, so the guards will not do anything to them.

But if there is no substitute and they go out at night, they will be eliminated or eaten by the guards.

He Wenzhi said: "Grandma, do you think that if the guards in Wuyou City disappear, will those restrictions disappear?"

When the old grandma heard this, she immediately stared.

"You kid killed a few ghosts last night, but they are already floating now, right? Those guards can guard this city, you really think they are comparable to those ghosts? I advise you to not mess around! You at least Think about the girl next to you too!"

Bai Ruozi: "It's okay, if you ask brother what to do, I will support him!"

"..." The old lady rolled her eyes directly, but she suddenly thought, and said: "If you are really capable, then you can just go and kill, although I don't know what your purpose is, but there is one thing I have to say Tell you.

Wuyou City has the rules of Wuyou City, if you do too much and touch the rules of Wuyou City, you will be punished by the rules! "

"Punishment by rules?" He Wenzhi's eyes lit up again.

What kind of battle had he not fought? But he has never come into contact with this "rule", so he is very curious and even looks forward to it.

Seeing He Wenzhi's reaction, the old lady was speechless again.

What's going on with this kid? Knowing that you will be punished, why are you so happy? Both eyes are shining!

But she still said: "Of course the rules won't do anything to you, but they can suppress you. If you are really strong enough to ignore the suppression of the rules, then they will probably drive you out directly."

"Get out?"

"That is, you can no longer enter the city."

"So that's how it is!" He Wenyi put his arms around his chest and touched his chin with the other, looking thoughtful.

Seeing this, the old lady slammed her cane on the ground, and said in a moment of panic: "Stinky boy! My old lady, I think that you are not yet alive, and I want to persuade you with all my heart. Why are you so ignorant of good and bad, and just refuse to listen?! "

He Wenzhi: "Grandma, don't get excited. I'm just thinking about it. I won't really do it. At most, I'll just kill a few."

"How many people to kill...?" The old lady stared at the door, pointing to the door: "Get out! You go! I don't want to see you now, old lady!"

He Wenzhi said with a smile on his face, "Then I'll ask a few more questions."

The old grandma didn't speak, just closed her eyes, not thinking about it.

She feels very angry now, and she is thinking about him wholeheartedly, but this brat just doesn't listen?

She thought about it, and finally took a deep breath.

"Forget it, I've persuaded him, I can't control him anymore if he insists on going to die." The old woman thought to herself, and said, "Ask."

"It's like this. I don't know if grandma has heard of Lanyue Mountain or Tianji Mountain? Have you heard of Chuncheng? Does Xuanwu Pavilion know? There is also a female ghost named Huang Xiaoyan, do you know?"

The old grandma blinked her cloudy eyes, this brat has so many problems!

She thought for a while and said, "I don't know what you asked, but you can go out of the city and go east all the way, there is a village there, and there is a river not far from the village.

It is said that there is a river god there, and he should know more things.

If you can find the river god, you may be able to find what you want to know. "

Although the old lady said so, she still looked at He Wenzhi with some weird eyes.

"Stinky boy, the deceased has passed away, so you don't have to force it anymore."

He asked for a moment: "Grandma, do you think I'm going to take the dead away from here?"

"Then why are you here?"

It was He Wenzhi who said he was looking for someone just now, so the old lady suddenly thought of this place.

It's just that He Wenzhi didn't explain anything, after all, if he really found those souls of Huang Xiaoyan, he would indeed take them away.

Thinking about it this way, there seems to be no difference.

In the end, he chatted with the grandmother for a while, and he already had a rough plan in mind.

There are rules in Wuyou City, if you do too much, you may be kicked out directly, and you will never be able to enter again.

Since this is the case, then kill it until it drives people away.

Anyway, I got a clue from the old lady just now. Next, I will go to that village, find the river god, and then try to pry out any useful information from the river god.

Just thinking about it carefully, there are ghosts in Wuyou City, so are the things outside the city creatures, or what?

Are the people in that village real people, or are they the same as in Wuyou City?

That so-called river god, could he really be a god?

With these thoughts in mind, He Wenzhi bid farewell to the grandmother. When he and Bai Ruozi walked to the street, he saw the awakened people and practitioners who came to Wuyou City together before gathered together.

There seems to be something wrong with each of their expressions.

He Wenzhi also went up to inquire, only to find out that someone had disappeared last night for no apparent reason.

There were less than 20 people in the first place, but three of them disappeared overnight yesterday!

The strength of these three is not weak, they are all between the sixth and eighth levels of [Day Hidden].

This time, those who dared to enter this secret realm were the lowest ones at the fifth level, and those who were lower would not have the courage, but stayed outside.

According to their description, they didn't go anywhere last night, they just stayed in the inn to sleep, but when they woke up the next day, they disappeared inexplicably.

To be honest, it is really strange that so many people gathered together and disappeared inexplicably.

He Wenzhi thought to himself and asked, "Those people haven't eaten the food here, so did they buy something?"

As soon as those people thought about it, some people nodded and said, "That's right! They said they wanted to take some of the things here out as souvenirs, and they can study them carefully at that time!"

He Wenzhi: "..."

It's really a good guy, this "keep as a souvenir" directly left people behind.

But when you think about it, it's not surprising.

After all, these people have encountered all kinds of weird things since they came in, and at the same time they also found that they couldn't beat the people in the city of worry-free.

They can't even beat these people, so what else can they do?

I can't do anything!

In this case, you can only stay calm, and then use the super rich aura in the secret realm to practice.

Perhaps after they go out, their strength will be much higher than those outside.

Although I feel a little bit aggrieved here, but this can be regarded as overtaking on the curve, and I can pretend to be aggressive after going out!

In order to keep some proof that they have been here, some people may indeed want to take something away.

If you can't eat something, then don't eat it, and use something else?

To be honest, if those ghosts hadn't come to look for He Wenzhi last night, he didn't expect to attract the ghosts when he bought something.

After all, all the previous signs only indicated that problems would only occur if one ate something.

But now it seems that it is far more than that, and all aspects need to be cautious.

Because if one is not careful, it is very likely that the person will really disappear.

He Wenzhi told them these discoveries of his own. After all, they all came from outside. In this strange place, he tried to help as much as he could.

Immediately afterwards, He Wenzhi asked where those three people bought things yesterday.

He was going to avenge these people as well.

Because considering that there are rules in the city of worry-free, if there is too much trouble, it is very likely that they will be forced out by the rules.

Therefore, the strength of these "people" living in the city is not very high, at least in He Wenzhi's view.

It would be a pity if it was because of these "people" that he could no longer come in.

So this time, He Wenzhi mainly focused on the guards of Wuyou City. Since he wanted to kill ghosts, he had to kill them very hard.

However, after He Wenzhi heard where the three missing people went to buy things last night, he called him a good guy in his heart.

These three people just wanted to leave a "commemoration", and then ran to seven or eight shops.

It's no wonder the three of them disappeared so silently last night. After all, people from seven or eight shops were dispatched at the same time. It's really not difficult to get rid of the three of them.

He patted these people on the shoulder and warned them to be careful and not to mess around again.

After finishing speaking, He Wenzhi left and went to the shops where the three of them had been, and each bought something.

In this way, until the evening, the two of them came to Xiaoyu's house again.

When the knock on the door sounded, Xiaoyu opened the door with a look of surprise, unexpectedly, her brother and sister came to play with her again.

In particular, he brought her delicious food.

It's just that when the old grandma saw the two of them, she had the heart to hit someone with a cane.

"Good boy! Why are you here again? Why don't you leave!?" She was really angry, and felt that everything she said these days was in vain.

She looked at He Wenzhi angrily, and then said softly to Bai Ruozi: "Girl, please listen to my advice from the old lady and stop following this brat! This brat is as stubborn as a cow, sooner or later Something is going to happen!"

Bai Ruozi smiled and said, "Don't worry, grandma, he's very good! It'll be fine."

After hearing this, even Bai Ruozi couldn't persuade him anymore. The old lady gave He Wen a stare, turned around and left, but she still kept talking.

"It doesn't matter, you were originally brought back by Xiaoyu, as long as Xiaoyu is happy, you can live as long as you like!"

"But you have to remember that sentence, leave as soon as possible, so as not to be eroded and assimilated."

Although the old lady looked unhappy, she was still thinking about why she asked Bai Ruozi in her heart.

Xiao Yu was taken aback, and asked in confusion, "Grandma, what are you talking about? Erosion and assimilation?"

"It's nothing, it's nothing, they brought you delicious food, so you should eat it quickly." The old woman shook her head and showed a doting smile.

"Good!" Hearing this, Xiaoyu was very happy.

…………

In this way, the time passed by every minute and every second, and before I knew it, it was already midnight.

In an inn, more than a dozen people gathered in a large room. These people are awakened people and practitioners from the outside world.

Ever since three of the people around them disappeared inexplicably last night, they have been panicking in their hearts, and they dare not go to sleep even this night.

Even though He Wenzhi told them the reason during the day, and now everyone is gathered together, they still couldn't settle down in their hearts.

They looked at each other, each with their own thoughts, but no one spoke.

The quiet atmosphere, coupled with the fear in my heart, made the whole room look very depressing.

Rumble!

At this moment, there was a sudden violent noise outside, as if there was an earthquake.

On the second floor of the inn where they were, the wooden floor felt shaking under their feet.

follow closely.

Rumble!

There was another violent explosion, as if something had collapsed, the vibration was stronger than before, and it felt like the whole inn was shaking.

One person really couldn't hold back his curiosity, opened the window a little bit, and looked through the small slit, and he was completely stunned.

Under the dark night, a figure exuded a dazzling white light, completely illuminating the surroundings.

He is like a human-shaped sun, exuding fiery heat.

He was obviously alone, but he was actually fighting a group of ghosts!

The huge noise just now was made by this humanoid sun during the battle!

The man was frightened and tried to count how many ghosts there were, but he couldn't count them at all.

He said with a trembling voice, "Hundred...Hundred Ghosts...Nightwalking...!"

When the others heard it, they immediately panicked.

At the same time, another person rushed up and slapped that person on the head.

"Then why don't you close the window quickly! If we are discovered later, we will all die!"

"No, it's not..." The man turned his head and said, "Yes... There is a person... He's singled out Hundred Ghosts Night Walk!"

"What!?"

Everyone's heart was shocked, and they pushed the man away.

"Step aside!"

Wow!

Immediately, the windows of the inn were pushed open, and a group of people poked their heads to watch.

Someone singled out a hundred ghosts in the middle of the night?

Could it be that our human powerhouse has come? The big troop is finally here?

It's just that when they looked, they happened to see fear in the eyes of those ghosts, as if they would die if they got close to the human-shaped sun.

At this moment, the human-shaped sun was chasing a ghost with round blush painted on both cheeks, and at the same time, a man's voice came out.

"Young man~ don't run away, brother, I haven't played enough~"

This joking voice reached the ears of the people in the inn. I don't know why, but I just feel a little buzzing in my head.

This man with white light like the sun, is he actually flirting with ghosts? And it was a male ghost!

"I remember... I remember!"

At this time, a person said: "Wrapped in white light, it burns like a raging flame like the sun! And with such a fighting style... It's him, it must be him! It can't be wrong!"

"It's the [man who eats ghosts]!"

"It's him!"

"We are saved!"
